The Marion County Lady Knights will be playing for the 20th District championship for the ninth consecutive year.

Marion County will face the Adair County Lady Indians in the championship game at 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 27, at Campbellsville High School.

The Lady Knights defeated the Taylor County Lady Cardinals, 40-23, on Tuesday evening in the first round of the four-team tournament. Adair County defeated the Campbellsville Lady Eagles, 50-22, in the other first round game.

The Aquaknights competed in the regional swim meet Feb. 13-14 at Woodford County. While no Marion County swimmers qualified for this year’s state meet, Coach Katie Kelien was pleased with her team’s effort.
“We could have had some faster times being that it was regionals, however I am beyond proud of what they have accomplished this year as a team, especially in a transition season,” Kelien wrote in an email. “We had solid times, and were very competitive against teams in our region.”
